The passage around this formula
The practical answer most teams converge on is a tiered budget, and it is worth writing the tiering down as an explicit equation rather than an implicit habit, because an implicit habit is what quietly erodes into “we stopped running the full suite” a few months in. If every merge triggers a cheap smoke tier of tasks at unit cost , run times a day, and a slower, more thorough tier of tasks at unit cost , run only times a day, the daily evaluation bill is simply
